Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 483
Luna secretly clenched her fists.
Alice mocked her by saying—right at Joseph’s and Natasha’s faces—that her parents barely cared about her, but the couple kept agreeing with her, saying that Luna deserved her parents not liking her.
The scene felt awfully comical and ironic to her.
She took a deep breath, walked past them, and headed straight to her office.
The moment her hand touched the doorknob, Alice laughed a little from behind. “Ms. Luna, are you not joining us? My mom made a lot of good food, and they used to be my favorite. I can’t even finish them! “
Her words were like a sharp knife that stabbed Luna’s heart violently.
Back when she was still Luna Gibson, Natasha and Joseph played favoritism. No matter what, they would always let Aura pick first.
Even meals.
Other than when she was sick, Natasha would rarely make the food she liked when she wanted them.
It was only when Aura could not return from overseas did this husband-and -wife pair realized that they still had another daughter.
Alas, they showered their love and attention to a person who assumed her identity.
Luna took a deep breath and scoffed with her back facing Alice, “Since your parents so thoughtfully prepared the food for you, you should just enjoy it. Don’t let them down.“
She finally turned the doorknob and entered her office.
Alice slightly squinted her eyes as she gazed at Luna’s back and smiled rather smugly. Although Luna might seem calm and collected, her stiffened back sold her out when she spoke.
As she took a bite of her food, Alice turned to grin at Natasha. “Mom, can you bring food to the office more often?“
Natasha was surprised and delighted to hear her request. “Of course! I’m genuinely sorry that I used to only care about Aura and neglected your feelings… I’m really happy that you’re willing to eat the food I make! “
Natasha then walked to Alice and held her in a tight embrace, though it was met with a vague indistinct detest in Alice’s eyes.
After a while, Alice lifted her head and looked at Natasha. “Mom, don’t be too happy just yet. We’ll spend a lot of time together…“
She then glanced at Luna’s office door. “There are more things for you to be happy about.“
Work started to get busy.
For the next half of the month, Luna was as busy as a bee. The first thing she did the moment she opened her eyes was work. When she closed her eyes to rest for the night, all she thought of was the design sketches.
Joshua ordered her to complete the designing of an entire series of jewelry within a month and spend another three months realizing the designs to fruition while working with the factory.
He wanted to debut the series of jewelry in Banyan City in four months’ time…
Time was short, and she had a lot to do.
In just half a month, her design sketches started to take shape. In the next half of the month, she needed to fine-tune the details.
However, Luna did not expect that someone would voice out while she was sharing her hard work for the past half a month with her staff.
“Director Luna.“ It was Courtney Johnson, Joshua’s previous secretary. Because of how much she looked like Luna Gibson, she was assigned to be Joshua’s personal secretary.
Later on, when Alice returned, she felt that she was no match for Alice, so she asked to be transferred to the design department, working as an assistant for her senior, Shannon.
At that moment, Courtney took her phone out and showed a design sketch on her phone.
“This went viral last night. It’s a rough draft of a genius jewelry designer by the name of Mo Sam, and he’s only seventeen. He came up with quite a few great jewelry designs.
“He posted the rough draft last night using his private account. He wanted to use this to entice others. He said that he’ll be finishing the rough draft into a full-fledged design sketch, hoping that investors would be interested in him.”
Then, she furrowed her brows and looked at Luna, who was sitting at the main seat in the meeting.
“The rough draft that Mo posted online is the exact same as yours, Director Luna.”
The entire conference room was instantly quiet.
Courtney then scorned, “I’ve been in the design department for quite some time already, and for the past half a month, you’ve been coming in early and working overtime. I could see how hard you worked, but after half a month, you showed us someone else’s rough draft? It only takes about half a day to copy the entire thing, right?”
“What nonsense are you talking about?”
